The old "force_assets=1" option is mentioned on the "rails:assets_precompile" doc webpage rather than the new "force_asset_precompile=true" one

The rails:assets_precompile doc webpage should be updated to mention the new force_asset_precompile=true option rather than the old force_assets=1 one, which no longer works.

I keep getting -----> Skipping asset precompilation though it is a new deployment.
I have checked that my project's "current/public/assets" is pointing to "shared/public/assets", and it is empty inside.
By adding force_asset_precompile=true parameter do solve my problem.
But shouldn't that precompilation run without problem?

Note:
I've change the standard flow of "mina deploy" for my project that's why asset precompile had run to separately. I wish to use invoke :'rails:assets_precompile' without extra parameter so that deployment script is much simpler.

because to be fast, mina checks diffs of your assets between deploys. if you deploy the same code twice, the second time there wont be any difference between your assets and it will skip precompiling

Unfortunately i do not have access to http://nadarei.co/mina/tasks/rails_assets_precompile.html to change that documentation :(
